Finally had some decent weather at the weekend so I took the C3 for a nice 80 mile run then parked up on the village green (very English I know) and took a few photos of her, I hope you'll agree that she looks stunning!
Curious, do you see any others across the pond (your side of the pond)? How are they viewed?
Take care, John
Hello John
Thanks for your appreciation and for your question.
There are about 3,000 Corvettes over here (of all years) and there is a relatively small but thriving 'classic American' car scene over here. You see plenty of Covettes at car shows but I personally only see 4 or 5 C3's on the road by chance per year.
American classics are very well appreciated over here due to there rarity and the fact that they look so brilliant, and I always get plenty of 'thumbs ups' when out and about in mine, they used to be seen as a bit vulgar by classic car clubs over here but that attitude has largely disapeared and we are welcomed at all shows and events now.
I don't know why but I've been crazy about old American cars since I was a kid and the C3 is my third American classic.
Regards
Nick

Thank you Nick. I am always curious how others view American muscle cars, just as we over here view yours (which is in high regards). Great to see your car. If you ever need help in locating parts please do hesitate to message me. I will do my best to help. Your car is SUPER nice!
